Rompiendo Fuente [English translation]

My wife works in the Duty Fee Zone

she embroiders dream on sleeves of shirts

and gathers hems in the afternoon

with a sun of "jeans" in her smile

It has been nine months of excitement

with my love pregnant every day

and a barrel of stars announcing

that she will soon be a woman who has given birth

CHORUS:

And I have the suspicion that you will give birth

to a beautiful girl like you

beautiful girl like you

My wife harvests hope

with nappies and pillow thread

and between cut and fabric she hides

like a tear that falls in the river

Do not worry, barren heart

push your womb, and let your waters break

that life hurts, is the law of the mother

but the fruit forgets what was suffered

CHORUS:

And I have the suspicion that you will give birth

to a beautiful girl like you

Listen

Bring dreams of yeast

night of strong liquor

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

In a world where the living

are survivors

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

Nine months and a little fish

swimming in your womb

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

My wife with mint tea

Is opening the source

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

Push, Mother! Push!

Rain water

transparent night

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

In a world where the living

are survivors

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

Push, Mother that with a cry

life ignites

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

My wife with mint tea

is opening the source

my wife with mint tea

is opening the source

Push, Mother! Push!
